Japanese Sharking On The Beach

La Mona Risa, the best humor stories / Luis M. Pescetti

Pescetti is an excellent author but if there is more subjective than the love, laughter. His anthology of humor, although I was on a roller coaster of laughter, it is an interesting range of things that one would cause laughter. Disinvent inventions that women who say no, lovers with a nosebleed, the girls who try to seduce a conductor or the story of Karl Marx are just some of the characters in Mona laughter.
The anthology is a parade of intent ironic, cynical, perhaps tender of laughter caused by the language or the almost involuntary humor of the characters. I did not know that Cortázar had tales of humor, but includes a pair Pescetti. There Ibargüengoitia texts, Buddha, Monterroso, Maruja Torres, Woody Allen and a bad neck that I saw the joke of Bryce Echenique. Where does the laughter we born? I do not know: the involuntary expression can depart from even the most grotesque things simple: laughter, fear of the powerful. In this book itself will laugh even if later stories that cause an indifferent silence, perhaps a chuckle.
